WSDLs and Schemas preview

Title: WSDLs and Schemas preview

Here is the ZIP file with MUWS and MOWS WSDLs and Schemas. This actually works when properly composed into a web service. I will be sending a manageable WS example for MOWS section 4 later.

<<WSDM.zip>>
So, essentially this ZIP has contents for  MUWS spec Appendices D and E and MOWS spec Appendices D and E.

Note the following.

For proper generation of skeletons and clients, explicitly defining complexType for property documents is a must. Since tools do not support WS-ResourceProperties yet, this is a work arround to get proper types and QNames ready for early implementers.

[
<xs:complexType name="EndpointIdentificationPropertiesType">
        <xs:sequence>
                <xs:element ref="mows:EndpointReference"/>
                <xs:element ref="mows:EndpointDescriptions"/>
                <xs:any minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
        </xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>

<xs:element name="EndpointIdentificationProperties"
        type="mows:EndpointIdentificationPropertiesType"/>
]

Schema includes provided to be a tricky part in the interop. Some WSDL tools would not import the namespace again and would just fail. Fixing it to imports (MUWS/MOWS) or inlining the schema in WSDL (WS-ResourceProperties fix) worked out just fine. So don't be surporised to see things like the following.

[
<types>
  <xs:schema elementFormDefault="qualified"
        targetNamespace="urn:wsdm:muws:types"
    xmlns:muws="urn:wsdm:muws">
       
        <xs:import namespace="urn:wsdm:muws" schemaLocation="MUWS.xsd"/>
       
  </xs:schema>
  </types>
]

Some WSDL tools did not support the (VALID!) attribute restriction as follows.

[
<xs:element name="NumberOfRequests">
        <xs:complexType>
        <xs:simpleContent>
                <xs:restriction base="muws:IntegerMetric">
                        <xs:attribute name="ChangeType" fixed="Counter"/>
                </xs:restriction>
        </xs:simpleContent>
        </xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
]

So I had to simplify it to

[
<xs:element name="NumberOfRequests" type="muws:IntegerMetric"/>
]
